Do you have missing teeth? If there are gaps in your smile, this could impact the health and beauty of your smile. But we can offer tooth replacement! Now is the time to see us to start this process, as you could have dental benefits available to use before the year ends! In today’s blog, your Shrewsbury, MA, dentist talks about using dental benefits to take on tooth loss with dental implants.
Dental Benefits and Tooth Loss
If you have missing teeth this can allow your jawbone to weaken and erode, a complication linked to further tooth loss and eventually, an older appearance. Missing teeth also alter how you eat, complicate your ability to speak, and could even lead to issues with bite balance and jaw joint strain. But with tooth replacement, we can fill these gaps and using dental implants, also keep your jawbone and facial structure intact for years to come. If you have dental benefits available with your dental insurance, then you can use these toward treatment, but you must act fast to use what is left of your 2025 benefits before they expire at the end of December. Likewise, if you have health savings account funds, you don’t want them to disappear at the end of the year before you use them. Talk to our team! We can help you understand your coverage options and see what is available to use for your tooth replacement.
Planning Your Tooth Replacement
Our team will take a close look at your smile to assess the cause and severity of your tooth loss, so we can see if you underlying issues like gum disease that need treatment, and also plan the position, depth, and angle to insert your dental implants, so they can act as new teeth and help secure replacement that can last for decades to come, possibly a lifetime. Every smile is unique, and we take a personalized approach to handling your missing teeth.
Dental Implants and More
Our team can use dental implants to address single missing teeth, or to secure a bridge or even a full set of new teeth. With options like All-On-Four, we can even address lost teeth and provide a full smile in only one visit. In addition, if you have lost oral structure or facial structure as well, we can discuss maxillofacial prosthetics to help restore your bite and your facial structure too.
